The Kingdom of Gallambria, commonly known as Gallambria or Kouratearoa in te reo Mārenai, is a sovereign country in Marenesia.
Indigenous Gallambrians have inhabited the island for approximately 1200 years. The Europan exploration of Gallambria commenced in the mid-16th century with the arrival of Anglian explorers. In 1592, Gallambria's eastern coast was claimed by Anglia and initially settled through a mix of voluntary migration and gifted land agreements. The Anglo-Europan population grew steadily in subsequent decades, and most of the island had been explored and additional colonies were established. On 12 July 1652

Military
His Majesty's Armed Forces consist of three profession service braches: The Royal Gallambrian Naval Service, consisting of the Royal Gallambrian Navy and the Royal Gallambrian Marines, the Gallambrian Army, and the Royal Gallambrian Air Force. The armed forces of Gallambria are managed by the Ministry of Defence and controlled by the Defence Council, chaired by the Secretary of State for Defence. The Commander-in-Chief is the Gallambrian monarch, to whom members of the armed forces swear an oath of allegiance. The Armed Forces are charges with protecting Gallambria and its overseas territories, promoting Gallambrian interests overseas and supporting regional and international stability efforts. They are active and regular participants in TRIDENT, including the Allied Rapid Reaction Force, the (TBD Defence Arrangement), RIMAD, and other worldwide coalition operations. Overseas garrisons and facilities are maintained in Iverica, Seylos, and Bashan.
The Gallambrian armed forces played a key role in establishing Gallambria as a dominant regional power in the mid-20th century. By emerging victorious from conflicts, Gallambria has often been able to decisively influence world events. Since the beginning of the 21st century, Gallambria has remained a major military power. Following the end of the Great Alharun War, defence policy has a stated assumption that "the most demanding operations" will happen within Gallambria's sphere of influence and will require the cooperation of established alliances.

Ethnicity and migration
Language
Anglish is the predominant language in Gallambria, spoken by 96.2% of the population. Gallambrian Anglish is similar to Standard Anglish.
After the Great Alharun War, Mārenai were discouraged from speaking their own language (te reo Mārenai) in schools and workplaces, and it existed as a community language only in a few remote areas. It has recently undergone a process of revitalisation, being declared one of Gallambria's official languages in 2019, and is spoken by 6.8% of the population. There are now Mārenai language-immersion schools and various media outlets that broadcast predominantly in Mārenai.
Religion
Forms of Christianity have dominated religous life in Gallambria for over 400 years. Although the majority of citizens still identify with Christianity in many surveys, regular church attendance has fallen dramatically since the middle of the 20th century, while immigration and demographic change have contributed to the growth of other faiths, most notably Salam. This has led some commentators to variously describe Gallambria as a multi-faith, secularised, or post-Christian society.
In the 2018 census, 51.9% of respondent identified with one or more religions, including 58.4% identifying as Christians. Another 36.3% indicated that they had no religion. Of those who affiliate with a particular Christian denomination, the main responses were Anglianism (25.7%), Catholicism (12.6%), and other Protestant denominations (19.9%). The Mārenai-based Wirangi religion (1.2%) is also Christian in origin. Immigration and demographic change in recent decades have contributed to the growth of minority relgions, such as Salam (1.2%) and Yehudah (0.9%). The Greater Bromwich Region exhibited the greatest cultural diversity.
Education
Primary and Secondary schooling is compulsory for children aged 6 to 16, with the majority attending from the age of 5. There are 13 school years and attending state (public) schools is free to Gallambrian citizens and permanent residents from a person's 5th birthday to the end of the calendar year following their 19th birthday. Gallambria has an adult literacy rate of 98%, and over half of the population aged 15 to 29 hold a tertiary education. There are four types of government-owned tertiary institutions: universities, colleges of education, polytechnics, and specialists colleges.
